As a quick work-around, the attached patch fixes the problem for me. That is, until tap-ctl changes it's output format.
Thanks, I have applied it.
Thanks for applying.

xend is deprecated. This ultimately means that xend will go away. If you are dependent on these features then you need put effort into ensuring that they become supported in libxl and xl.
For our forthcomming release of UCS-3.0 we really wanted to switch from Xend to xl, but be had to switch back to using Xend, because libvirt still lacks some important features like migration; see <http://libvirt.org/hvsupport.html> for a comparison matrix. Back at the beginning of 2011 Univention sponsored Markus Gross to work on the xl-binding of libvirt,
Thank you for putting your money where your mouth is here!
but after the end of his internship I have not seen that much work on the xl-binding in libvirt except from Jim Fehlig.
AFAIK Jim is the main man working on this stuff. Last I heard he was working on migration but I don't know the status, Jim?
As you've probably noticed, I haven't had much time to devote to libxl and the libxl libvirt driver :-(. Migration, and some other important but missing features, are on my todo list, but not quite sure when I'll get back to this work. Regards, Jim
